that is in syria with al bashir assad. you have a circumstance, every international norm, from refusing to protect diplomats, violating international agreements relating to nuclear arms and nuclear weapons, attempt to get nuclear weapons, to attempting to assassinate on foreign soil a diplomat. they've been continually marginalized. the biggest thing that's happened, the president has been able to unite the world including russia and china. in continuing to ostracize and to isolate iran. so the truth is, and i really mean this, rachel, the talk about the projection, the capacity of iraq to project power in the gulf is actually diminished. they are less feared. they are less -- they have less influence than they have had any time, i would argue, in the last 20 years. and there will be a relationship between iraq and iran because they have a very long border. they will trade. they should have a normal relationship. but they are not allies. remember, these are the guys that, in fact, fought against iran. even the shia in iraq

will this be under iran the way lebanon is under syria? >> reporter: iran's influence is already here. think of it this way. there are right now zero direct flights between the united states and iraq. you have to go through dubai or several of the other countries. there are, on many days, 12, 15, 18 direct flights between iraq and iran. there are over 2 million iranians who come here every year. they invest here. when you walk around the country, most of the taxi cabs on the streets in baghdad these days come from iran. so iran's influence, economically, culturally, politically even, depending on who you ask, is already very significant in this country. some of that is positive. iraq can use the tourism. and just because pilgrims from iran are coming here to visit shiite religious sites doesn't mean they're taking over the country. but it certainly shows the amount of influence that they have. >> thank you very much, richard engel. take care in baghdad. >> reporter: you take care of yourself. >> now let's to "the washington post." author o
